Registration for all events opens 5:00pm. All starts from 5:30pm to 7pm.
Map / Event Format  All
competitors will be provided with a fully marked up colour A4 map
of the event
area and a list of control descriptions at registration. This will give
you planning time
to work out your chosen route. Your aim is to cycle and navigate to as
many checkpoints as possible and to return
to the event centre within 2 hours. A coded punch will be located
at each control site and you must punch your control card in the right
box.On the night Procedure Registration will be open from 5:30pm - please sign in ASAP and collect your map and list of control descriptions, then you can go for a warm up ride before starting. Prepare your bike, equipment and yourself, then go to the start 6 - 7pm where you will enter the coned area and be clocked out. Off you go. Enjoy yourself! Results will be calculated and hopefully displayed on a
results string. There will be no prizes, only a perpetual prize for
league winners in class A, B and C. But everyone gets a slice of the
cake at the final event at Wilf's Cafe. Enter on the day, no pre-entry required. Use the entry form to enter one or more events in the series. You can start after 7pm, but last finish is 9pm so you will have less than 2 hrs..... There will be 30 controls, all worth 10 points. Lateness penalties were revised in 2006: 1 to 5 mins late - lose 2
points per minute
5 to 10 mins late - lose 5 points per minute 10 to 20 mins late - lose 10 points per minute over 20 mins late - lose all points The usual TCA Rules and Equipment apply. No Bridleways or off-road routes are allowed, the events are all on tarmac.

Lanequest
cycle events are held on Tuesday
evenings in
June and early July. These simple format 2hr tarmac based
Trailquests are an ideal bike ride for a hot summer evening. Families
are most welcome and any sort of bike is suitable. They are held on
backroads and country lanes to avoid the busy traffic strewn highways.
Can be treated as a bit of fun or for hot competition, all profits go
to charity.
